This is a 2 CD set entitled "Every Groove a
Bluesman Needs To Know". There are 31 "top shelf" Blues Grooves in all,
with loads of different beats, tempos, keys and grooves. These backing tracks
are designed to cover every blues groove a musician needs to know. It's a great
learning tool for all members of the band. Drummers, guitar players and bass
players all will benefit greatly by learning these particular grooves. They are
perfect for playing lead blues licks and melodies on any instrument, whether it
be harmonica, sax, piano, guitar or anything else playing blues music. They are
extremely high fidelity and are perfect for making recordings with. All titles
were carefully chosen and will help immensely to communicate with drummers,
guitar players and bass players, to get the groove you want. It helps a great
deal to really understand what the difference is between a Jazz
Swing and a Texas Shuffle, or a Texas Tramp
Groove and a Second Line Beat? These are slang terms used
by blues players. This is your chance to learn what slang terms like that, and
lots of other lingo means, and best of all, what they sound like. Here lies a
lifetime of information from working musicians and the slang and lingo used to
communicate "feel", "groove", "beats", "bass lines" and more,
without written music. Simply play any track and read the groove
description provided several times while you listen. Identify each statement
made in the description to the sound made in the music. Then memorize the slang
used to communicate that musical idea, which is simply (the title of that
groove). This is a product
that came from the desire to have jam tracks that really groove, with heavy
hitting Blues-Cats playin’ them. GrooveTrax™ are like getting a PHD
"from the boulevard of the blues". They will help make anyone "street
smart" with the blues.
